Kempe Stone Cromlech, Dundonald, from the East: A Dolmen with Photographer in Picture for Scale This evocative photograph captures the mysterious and ancient Kempe Stone Cromlech in Dundonald, County Down, Northern Ireland. Dating back to the Neolithic period, around 3000 BC, this impressive dolmen is believed to have been used as a burial site and a place of ritual and worship. The name "cromlech" comes from the Old Irish word "crom," meaning "bent," and "lech," meaning "stone," describing the curved stones that form the structure's capstone and supporting stones. In this image, taken circa early 1900s, a photographer is seen standing in front of the cromlech, providing a sense of scale to the massive stones. The photographer's presence adds an intriguing layer to the photograph, as if to emphasize the connection between the past and the present. The landscape around the cromlech is lush and green, with trees and shrubs framing the ancient monument. Located in the beautiful County Down area of Northern Ireland, Kempe Stone Cromlech is a popular tourist attraction for those interested in history, archaeology, and the natural world. The site is easily accessible and offers a unique opportunity to connect with the rich cultural heritage of the region. This photograph, with its timeless quality and intriguing composition, invites us to contemplate the mysteries of the past and the enduring allure of ancient sites like Kempe Stone Cromlech.
